The narrator said South American ports would be "well out of reach of most American bombers." What is he smoking? There isn't any place on earth our bombers can't reach, least of all in our own hemisphere.
I'm guessing he has never seat near an airforce runway and watched the planes they are moving,
I agree. They can do in air refueling so I think they can hit anywhere in South America @@Whoozerdaddy
Surprised, yet not, that the video neglected to mention the civilians who won’t hesitate to fight back. A quote that perfectly describes this defense tactic, “You cannot invade mainland of the United States. There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass.”
That quote was to the Emperor by a man named Isoroko Yamamoto, he was an exchange student here, he made friends here, he liked Americans, but his Emperor tasked him with planning the attack on Pearl Harbor. When it was a success, he again asked Isoroko to draw plans to invade the mainland. He replied "I will do as the Devine one wishes, but if he seeks my council if we should invade.....then I say no, you will lose every man that steps foot on American soil. They live by the gun, they got their country by the gun. Every farmer is not like ours, they hunt to feed their families...you will find a gun behind every blade of grass and a man who knows how to use it!"
They’d never reach the shore… and if they did they’d never leave.
Let's also not forget the last line of defense, the civilians. The US has the most armed population in the world, both guns per person (Around 1.2 guns per person) and total number of guns (Close to 400 million).
And while guns alone can't stop an army, we have seen how effective Asymmetric warfare can be in Vietnam and Afghanistan.
i believe it surpassed 500m recently
82,000,000 gun owners
I can't see anyone getting more than three steps off the boat if Texas gets invaded. It would literally be raining bullets.
It's estimated at 400-600 million (registered and not).
@@Mike28625 AL was underrated, too. Most of the gulf coast in general is not a place an invading force would want to try, from the swamps to the people to the wildlife. Add in that a lot of Americans either have or know someone with a CB or ham radio, so even if they took out landline, mobile, and internet, we still have ways to communicate across vast distances.
Any invading force also needs to remember as civilians we didn't sign, no geneva Conventions 😂😂😂
That’s why when people criticize the U.S. for violating the Geneva Convention they are laughed at. “Geneva Convention? Lol we didn’t sign that.”
Yep if that would happen, I would just pretend Im in an episode of the walking dead and take out a lot of pent up menapausal anger and aggression.
10.05 "Out of range of American bombers (in South America)." ... Wrong. The US has the largest air refueling tanker fleet in the world. There is NO place out of reach of American bombers. America also has 800+ military bases EVERYWHERE. Those can be used to extend the range of American aircraft.
Don’t forget that we have ICBMs that can reach pretty much anywhere in the world. Developed for nuclear threat
The US Constitution sets forth rights given by God, not to be taken from us by men. While some states have infringed on them, most American states retain the right to bear arms and defend themselves, and most Americans look out for each other as well as themselves. This should also be taken into consideration before deciding to attack the US.
Merry Christmas, my neighbours to the south.. we Canadians appreciate you! 🇺🇸🇨🇦 👋🏻✌🏻🫶🏻
And happy New Years to all ayy!
This is nuts, even without a military, the America people out number any invaders, and American ingenuity would be tough to beat. One thing freedom does it it allows us to think freely and to adapt.
Don't forget the 2nd Amendment. The US public hold many guns and ammunition.
And we can pretty much own most of what the military is capable of. As well as we have small drones, 3d printers, house hold chemicals and gun stores for days 🤣
One thing this video did not talk about is all the weapons in private hands. There are more Americans with guns than people and guns in the US Military. They hunt with said rifles and most are very good shots. A bunch of said people are US Veterans who was trained by the US Military and others grew up shooting weapons of all types from a young age. You could call a lot of them snipers. Just think about that. More snipers than their are people in the US Military. Yes we do have a lot of people who have guns and don't know what they are doing. But we have even more that do.
There are not more civilians with guns than people/guns in the military. There are 130 million US households, about 60 million report having one weapon, about 70% of those have a handgun only.
Only one person can use a handgun and they can’t be a sniper with it. Only 1-2% of the USA has ever been in the military (post Vietnam), not all of them deployed, even fewer were in combat roles, even fewer were anything close to a sniper.
You’re talking about maybe 500k people, probably less than 200k. These people are spread over the entire country.
I’m what you’re describing, I don’t have a weapon anymore, and I have no desire to ever shoot at anyone ever again. I know zero people, that I didn’t serve with, that are even close to a sniper, or that I’d even trust to unload a weapon in my house.
You’re living in red dawn, other tv/movies, and video games.
I don't know what you are talking about. I can tell you just in my small town, county and state. We have a lot of guns. Just look at the hunting license sold just in my state (year 2022 sold 844,826 hunting license in my state only. That is also more than 1/2 of the number of active duty military personnel of the USA). Almost every one of the people who bought one have more than 1 rifle and most of them have handguns. Plus others in that hunters house hold have their own rifles and guns and may not hunt. this is just hunters in 1 state out of 50 states.
So I think you might want to do more research. There is millions of rifles and handguns in the USA. Millions of hunters and millions of Vets in the USA. I am one of them. I was Infantry with both 2 ID and 101st. I was trained to shoot a rifle and sniper training. I also seen combat in the middle east. So don't try to tell me none or very little seen combat. That alone would be a lie.
I can show you many Hunters just from my area who can shoot as good as 80 percent of are US Army snipers.
So you do not know what you are talking about.
We could also talk about the archers who have better camouflage clothing than are military and kill with a bow. But a lot are going to crossbows that shoot like a rifle. Before you say crossbow don't shot like a rifle. I will say go out and try one. They do.
The US Military had 1,388,000 active duty personnel in 2019. The USA had 333,287,557 people in 2022. 2 percent of that is 6,665,751 people, so your numbers don't even add up @@nwj03a
The dude is in the comment section spreading misinformation like crazy. Think we have someone against the 2nd ammendment amongst us 😅 @@Nickadeamus11
It said households (not people) + guns. My math is just fine and your logic is still terrible
I didn't serve in the military, but I've been firing weapons since I was a kid, fired my first shot gun when I was 10 missed the clay pidgin shot up my grandads apple tree and the recoil put me on my ass... but I'm a much better shot now. My husband calls me eagal eye so I could probably work out as a spotter for a sniper. Patriot from West Virginia
If Russians tried landing in Mobile Bay, the alligators would get them.
Each US state has it's own military called the National Guard, Besides the US Military
The American military fully embraced the old saying "amateurs study tactics while professionals study logistics." It does not matter how strong your military is if you cannot get it to the fight nor keep it supplied. America easily supplied forces in Afghanistan for twenty years while Russia could not even supply its forces that were invading a country sharing a border with it. America has also demonstrated that there is no where on Earth that its bombers cannot reach. It was bombing Afghanistan with bombers flying out of Missouri and Louisiana.
Amen. Logistics are extremely important in modern warfare, and no one comes close to the US in logistical effectiveness. That just makes sense, as no one comes close in power projection, which requires utmost logistical efficiency.
People think it’s all about things that go boom. At the point of engagement, yes. But in modern scenarios, you have to have a long line supporting that point. No one can project to that point, and support such projection, like the US. We can do it globally, while other nations can mostly do it in their own regions in any appreciable numbers.
invading land and keeping land Are two different things. I do not believe there is a near peer competitor with a large enough military force
What if our current administration is the one to Gove the signal to the foreign military aged males to start the "plan". They've all been given cellphones just for that purpose. I guarantee that our US military will be given a "stand down" order.
Merry Christmas! Yeah, even I'm not sure what would happen if you gave 350 million people permission to fire freely. We seriously have more guns than people. And that's without our military being involved.
Yup, 120 guns per 100 citizens, and that's without taking into account only Americans legally old enough to buy them.
No shit. If, IF was conquered by another nation, lessons learned from participation in Afghanistan even Iraq, great you conquered our country... GOOD LUCK when it becomes urban combat. Here even I disagree on certain weapons to have, but in this case, GOOD LUCK with killer bees at this point. The victor would be so screwed, they'll leave. Hope our government gets back together, hopefully more wise to elect appropriate to run this government.
But yeah, try to conquer us, Good Luck invaders/Orcs.
Less than 10 million own 95% of those guns, 55-60% of houses have zero at all. Most Americans have never even touched a weapon in their life.
It’s less daunting than you’d think and since civilians shoot like drunk men piss, it’s not that scary. Problem? Yes. Advantage? Debatable.
@@nwj03a Yeah - the cities are gonna have a tough time. Most of which line the coasts - which would be a bad thing if we lost those.
But the thing I might quibble with is that most of those gun owners are people in rural areas who depend on them to live.
Whether used in hunting or dispatching pests that would relieve them of their mortal coil, they know how to use them.
Also, don't discount the many, MANY who are ex-service members. My point being more probably know how to use them than don't.
Anyway, hope you had a Merry Christmas!
@@TrineDaely IKR?!! I remember our dad teaching us to shoot before Kindergarten (it was an airgun (you'll shoot your eye out!!!) but he wanted us to get used to them) and mom being REAL upset about that! lol
🇺🇲❤️🇵🇹 Merry Christmas! The biggest threat to the US is internal instability and division.
As Abraham Lincoln said, "All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest; with a Buonaparte for a commander, could not by force, take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years... If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by our own hands."
This would never happen in a million years. We dont even need a military 🎖️ we are the military
American civilians own 46% of the *world's* guns!
During WWII, General Yamamoto said Japan could not invade the U.S. because, “There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass.”
To land in South America and push north would be impossible because of the Darien Gap. There is simply no road, even a primitive one, between Columbia and Panama. The area is considered lawless with rapes and robberies common among hikers who try to traverse the gap. Moving heavy equipment through this area is impossible due to mountains and the wet climate.
Admiral Yamamoto. He was a navy man. And there’s really no substantiation that he said that.
As someone who lives close Tacoma and been to Seattle more than a few times, I can confirm nobody would make it past this area. Along with the Naval ports, there's an Army/Airforce base a few miles away that maintains about 40,000 active duty personnel, and I know there are several more military bases and other essential military sites in the region. They are serious here.
You also have a Naval Air Station on Whidbey Island that all ships would have to pass by. Along with this, there are old military artillery forts on multiple islands in the Puget Sound that the military can easily put rockets and artillery back on there.
This video completely misses the US civilian defense that would make even the best military take MASSIVE losses so, so far from home. It is staggering the level of civilian defense that this nation can unleash on an invasion. It is why the Brits were sent packing back in the day (although they are some of our BEST allies today).
I am the most peaceful man you could ever meet, but they are not going to harm my family without hearing from me.
Japan Yamamoto after Pearl Harbor: “I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve”
Unfortunately these scenarios are assuming that the US has competent leadership at the time, and as stands..... that might be too optimistic.
The craziest thing is that the video never mentioned the armed populous !!!!
Ukraine handed out guns to its citizens,
America only need to hand out ammunition!!
Armed forces + patriots!! Military quadruples in a day!!
Texas is the 2nd largest (and 2nd most populous state).
It has the most guns as well, in a country whose civilians own 46% of the *world's* guns!
The Texas economy is also bigger than Russia's!
My grandfather was in Normandy he didn't talk much about it I was sad he never saw me join military and I would have loved to hear stories I didn't ask about when I was young
Please react to "the green beret that went on a one man rampage to save his comrades".
Merry Christmas. I hope you are having a wonderful holiday with lots of family 😊
I really appreciate Mr. European Reacts indulging a myriad of potential scenarios to attack the United States (US), but any such scenarios are ludicrous. Even if any nation, or combination of nations were able to attack the US, they would face the most armed populace in the world (which is a significant domestic problem in the US)--even without the US military, no nation would be able to successfully subdue the US population.
Not only to mention, our economy really kicks into high gear when we wage war. It’s just a win win
No one can mess with America (as an American), but what disturbs me is any hint we would abandon our allies. Disgusting.
I didn’t have 8 uncles die in Europe in WWII for us to stop Ukraine aid.
It doesn’t matter we can protect ourselves- what matters is our shit reluctance to give anything/everything Ukraine needs.
WHO CARES if we could defend ourselves if we don’t step up for our allies and our values. If we don’t commit to NATO and support Ukraine, as an American citizen, I’ll feel humiliated by our lack of support. My family will have died for nothing.
My dad was third highest rank in the Navy. He agrees with Ukraine support.
Sigh. Okay. Your reactions are amazing and perfect and I love hearing them!!!!
Down the road a bit from where I live there is Orleans, Massachusetts the sight of "the battle of orleans" in 1918 a german uboat made it into Cape Cod Bay and fired upon a small convoy of barges and a few years back they had to detonate one of the errant shells that was found undeatonated on the beach. It was the last attack on the mainland united states and the only of world war one. The naval station 7 miles away in chatham was called from orleans coastguard to help and eventually they did but, their response was delayed because it was summer and most of the pilots for their new "flying boats" were allegedly off playing baseball in Provincetown against a minesweeping crew which is probably the most american thing to ever happen.
Cross an ocean, surpassing the navy, coastguard, and Air Force to secure a landing, fight through heavily urban areas, fight through forests, cross a mountain range, and end up in a massive plane cut off by rivers, hills, and more cities and forests. It ain’t possible unless it’s the whole world
Your laughing because it's true your laughing is always appropriate
The Primary Strength of the USA is Logistics
The US Navy and to a lesser extent Coast Guard disrupt the supply lines of any invaders at Sea and Navy also in the Sky
Meanwhile anything that managed to land has to deal with the Army and Airforce as well as National Guard
Oh and there's going to be a lot of Seals and Delta Force Teams that will make sure the Marines are going to have fun kicking in your Own front door
This isn't my opinion because the US is superior in every way, it's not, but the US Armed Forces have the deserved mentality of "F*ck around and Find out"
They're not arrogant, just confident based on records
I’m loving your reactions! Keep it up!
lol 😂 In Texas!! You said exactly what I was thinking! I’m from Houston TX and I know almost everyone here has at least 1 to 20 guns 😅😂
there is one part they are not talking about the fact that the number of people who have guns and know how too use them is a new factor. of the 4 plane that were taken over on 9 11 only 2 truly hit their target, 2 of the plane crashd due to the people of the planes. that what the words lets roll came from.
Merry Christmas!
Same to you! 🙏
Remember how much of a problem the North Vietnamese were to defeat for the U. S ? They really weren't that armed to begin with. American civilians are in general are well armed. We have a massive numbers of retired military and National Guard personnel. Between our military and the armed civilians, I can't see any invading military to last very long. We would also most likely have a counterattack against the invading county or countries.
If they try anywhere in the south it wouldn’t go well, we all have guns down here.
The US also has 2 hospital ship's something you may want to check 5
Do not forget how heavily armed the civilians are. Civilians are not limited on the amount they can own.
Texas would not be a good spot to try.
It would be suicide to invade. Navy would put up a blockade. In front fast attack subs (subsurface defense then surface attacks), next several DDGs and CGs for anti-air defense and anti-ship missiles, in the back 3 carriers and 2 amphibious ships (mobile platforms for air force and marine verticle lauch f-35's). At the same time the air force will split their long range bombers into three groups (bombing, in-route, reloading/refueling) for a closed loop constaint bombardment at high altitudes. And this doesn't even talk about what the army and air force can set up along the coastline.

well@@kevinlee6003 Louisiana has the best food!!
@@timfeeley714-25 I tried to put what I thought was the best of each state. I was not going to put a dozen things for each state. Things like Pike Place Market and Space Needle is meh compared to my list.
@@dewilton7712 you put 19 things for california, I'm from Washington and your wrong, you also missed Deception Pass State Park chuckanut drive and mount Shuksan!
here is a basic fact that the video did not mention : in the middle of america you have what we call red necks, or hillbillies. This a group of people that start to hunt at 5 years old learn how to track at 6 and Know the land better then their moms face. They have lots of rifles ,shotguns, and hell guns in general and Know how they fire what is the best ammo for each and every kill, and are skilled in hand to hand fighting JUST FROM GROWING UP THERE .Lot's of luck even getting 15% of your invasion troops back after they have had their fun picking them off with head shots.
Personally i think the only part that makes sense is invading through alaska then taking canda or somehow convincing them.
Canada literally has no roads to get into the United States& Mexico is a goddamn nightmare. Do you even get to the border😂
Yeah, but not military accessible.
Did you say Russia cannot beat Ukraine?
Damn straight they can’t unless my American Congress fails to get its shit together to give more $ and weapons.
My grandmothers brothers died in Europe in WWII. They’d be humiliated over America not giving Ukraine all it needs 😅
I’ve sent over $1000 to family friends who are Ukrainian on the front lines. Ugh, I’ve sent so many nastygrams to members of US Congress over Ukraine aid. Ugh. I’m so mad and now I’m worked up over it. HOW DARE WE ABANDON UKRAINE
check out Canada's history in ww1 and ww2. and the geneve convention :)
The reason why it's a curse is that it's so extremely expensive. And it can ride citizen confidence in government. We spend so much just to maintain our navy alone, I think 100 million a month? I know for me, I wish I could just call and get my road fixed or not tell a urgent care doctor "I'm too poor for appendicitis"(true story).
I enjoy your stuff on youtube. I live in the USA GA. iv live here most of me live, im also a big fan of history i have dyslexia but books on trap were my savor as far as that goes. until a few years ago i would make a point of see places about the mostly the southern part of the USA because i could get there and back in a weekend.
In Red Dawn (1984) The Soviet Union gained a foothold in the sparsely populated Great Plains and Rocky Mountains.
This was accomplished by using commercial jets to drop Russian Paratroopers.
Russia drop a few dozen nukes to disrupt commerications.
Then the main allied Soviet, Cuban and Nicaraguan forces move up through Mexico.
We also have:
Abled and willing veterans with knowledge and experience.
Passionate overworked underpaid tired of the bs over bs civilians
Army reserves.
National guard.
Some might even champion space force.
MERRY CHRISTMAS from the USA. Love From Michigan and it's a rather strange weather temp of 51 degrees..
Infographics doesn't do a great job on this subject (imho on any subject, but anyway) - might I suggest the Warographics video on attempting an American invasion?
“God has a special providence for fools, drunkards, and the United States of America.” ― Otto von Bismarck
400 million guns in the hands of 200 million Americans. Good luck.
The numbers are actually more than that 😅
❤ this channel
Andre, the US and Canada are closely bound together in the North American Aerospace Defense Command [NORAD], Canadian military are integrated into US defense installations.
The Commanding Officer is American and the Deputy Commander is Canadian. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NORAD
LMAO! You are picking Texas over Russia! You are correct , Sir!
Most of these videos never bother to mention that a good portion of the American people are also carrying weapons, making ground invasion difficult
Must admit, I busted out laughing when you said about a Russian invasion, "All due respect, they cannot even defeat Urkraine..." 😁
isn’t it amazing that america’s navy has come so far since its independence, even beating the worlds previous strongest navy (britain) and they’ve existed for only a quarter of the time that they have
look into the history of it is creation from the channel of fat electrician, absolute shit show hahaha, always bad ass
this video is cool but I was hoping it would go into the problems they would have if they actually did invade the US...
in the US there are 16 million military veterans, probably 20+ million more able bodied American's willing to fight... 433 million guns to distribute to those willing to use them...
6 billion rounds of ammunition is sold on the civilian market EVERY YEAR... 10 billion if you include law enforcement... we don't use that much ammo, so its safe to assume we have hundreds of billions if not trillions of bullets stockpiled by now...
every street would have a house shooting at them... every patch of woods would have people hiding in the trees... every road would have an ambush waiting...
we have loads bunkers made for surviving nuclear attacks leftover from the coldwar/cuban missile crisis... good for surviving artillery and air bombing raids...
not to mention all the creative American inventers who will come up with all sorts of new ways to kill an invading force...
honestly if the military just decided to leave U.S. to defend itself and counter-attack Russia... I think the civilians would have the defense of the US covered...
The adults in the 80s hated Red Dawn for all the right reasons. Only us 80s kids liked it.
I am aware of no instances, in which US military or civilian leaders used fears of a prospective homeland invasion by a foreign power to push anything, budgetary or otherwise. First, they would have been laughed out of the room then, as they would now. Second, the only impact such statements would make, is to quickly call into doubt, the competency of that particular general/admiral/politician, and virtually end their career(s). That channel's videos can be somewhat helpful, but they get A LOT of details wrong, and inject rather childish suppositions regularly..
America has 400 million civilian owned guns, even if the military took a nap, the US would be safe
Invading the US sure , Invading a country on the other side of the planet from anyone dumb enough to try, Has the most powerful military on earth , has natural defensive features , has a 74 million man armed militia.
Which as a note according to the Militia Act per Title 10 of the U.S. Code, Section 311. The Militia is defined as every able-bodied men between ages 17 and 45 who is not a member of the US military active or reserve duty or the National Guard forces . The US Unorgainized militia or reserve militia is the most heavily armed militia on the planet. Yes it is 100% legal to own a tank in the US , It's also legal to own a heavy machine gun and explosive weapons provide you file the right paperwork and pay the taxes on said weapons /vehicles.
Unless our military is ordered to "stand down".
When was the last time our military was actually used to protect our own people????
@@OkiePeg411 the problem with that is the soldiers and officers would decide that the politicians are not fit to lead and that would go bad for the politicians.
As to when the last time soldiers defended civilians. Well considering that military reservists and National Guard do other jobs in the civilian world. Quite often.
Also while just six percent of the U.S. population has served in the military, veterans make up 10 percent of emergency medical technicians EMTs, 19 percent of firefighters, and 25 percent of police officers.
So veterans which note anyone who leaves the military before 8 years of service with an honorable discharge can be recalled to duty by the military. And these veterans will in all likelihood be the first ones called in the case of a draft situation.
So an invasion is one of those points were the military tell the politicians to shut up and get out of our way. Because to be blunt an invasion put our families in the same danger as it does everyone else.
You tell put a man in a situation where his home is being invaded by armed people intent on taking everything he worked his whole life for and tell him to stand down. See how quick that order gets the one given it shot.
"I do solemnly swearthat I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same."
That's the first part and most important part of the Oath of Enlistment.
Oath of Commissioned Offices goes like this...
" I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.
Yeah looks like the Enlisted and the Officers of the military are on the same page about the subject of defending the nation.
The motto of the US Army is " This Will Defend."
The Motto of the Marine Corps is Semper Fidelis which is Latin and means Always Faithful.
US Navy motto is Semper Paratus - Always Ready.
US Air Force motto is “Aim High … Fly-Fight-Win”.
The National Guards motto is Always Ready, Always There! The Guard is primarily under state control unless called up by the President himself and are the OG at kicking invaders out of this nation. The Guard was born on December 13th , 1636.
So it's safe to say the military isn't standing down in an invasion scenario involving a nation's military. Illegal immigrants don't constitute an invasion.
André ,The Japanese invaded the Aleutian Islands (part of Alaska) in WWII...
The Communist armed forces have a more rigid command structure that would be less flexible to adversity.
In this kind of situation, we'll have to wave goodbye to our states of Hawaii and Alaska-at least for a while. Also, there's a 0% chance that Canada, especially, and/or Mexico, would consent to an invading force using its lands/ports. Finally, Americans (and Canadians and Mexicans) are armed. Any invaders coming our way should figure that in, too, because it would most certainly be a gigantic problem for any hostiles. I mean, we barely obey our own government. - particularly if it's of the "other" party. So we're definitely not going to follow an invading gov't!
People joke on what they'll do if there's an invasion from an enemy military able to teleport soldiers. Will never happen, but we still dream on it.
I suppose, the Russians or North Koreans COULD invade on of the Aleutian islands of Alaska but not CONTINENTAL U.S.
😂 Texas really!?
I live in Texas. Yeah, there are more people than guns, &’ there are any insane amount of guns in Texas!!😂
Yeah, Land there!
No, we currently have an invasion underway although it has been non-violent so far, they may in fact just be waiting for a signal to take it to the next level. It is estimated that over 27million in a 3 year period and these people have not been tracked after entry. How many are cover and how many actual foreign agents waiting to act is unknown. New world, new tactics when you can’t equal your foe on the outside battlefield you take it to their own streets.
Maybe sometimes go back some seconds? I feel like you miss some things at times. I am a huge fan of your channel though!!!
they are currently invading the southern border, and via the north as we focus on the southern front
You should check out a video about the vs the us
This whole scenario depends on ignoring that we wouldnt just let any large force make it to where they are going lol. Which would be thousands of intercepting missiles, Aircraft carrier strike groups, and Air strike intercepts.
You cant even make it to an american coast let alone make it there with a large enough force and think we are just watching lol
The only problem is our open border... we may have a fight on our hands with the "bad guys" coming in and scattering across our country... But... we are the most "armed" nation in the world.... have more guns out there then people. And no way will most of the American people sit back and let anything like that happen... especially here in the south lol
Enjoyed your video... agree wholeheartedly with you❤
Until next time.... Bye
they can't even beat the Ukraine he says. That was funny.
AMERICANS ALSO OWN 400 MILLION GUNS
When my parents were kids they had fire and bomb drills. When I was a kid we had fire and tornado drills. Today, kids have fire and active shooter drills. Smh
When I was a kid we had nuclear bomb drills, fire drills, bomb threats, lock downs due to serial killers, stabbings, tornado drills, escaping buses drills... there's bad in every generation that we have to prep our kids for. (Not saying that we shouldn't look to stop gun violence against kids btw, just that drills have been around forever for one thing or another).
@@Chrysalis-uu5ec Oh yeah, there has to be drills for emergencies, it's just back when I was in school it was only for natural disasters.
@@Chrysalis-uu5ec I forgot about the bus drills. We had those too.
We're being invaded right now,and no one is doing anything to stop it.
"It's Fine Now! Why? Cause I am here to watch your reaction" 852nd like and 196th comment you are growing keep up the good work.

Watch and react to the this movie you will thank me.
to give you a taste this is a little about the story:
In an alternate 1980s, the United States stands alone as communism grows stronger. When Soviet soldiers invade a small Colorado town, brothers Jed (Patrick Swayze) and Matt Eckert (Charlie Sheen) escape with friends to the forest. With their father, Tom (Harry Dean Stanton),

In Texas lol the cowboys there would destroy them lol
You should react to the 2nd amendment they didn’t mention we the people
Can we make him an honorary American?
Even if they get through military. Most american civilians have better guns than the military lol.
Nope.
The borders are intentionally open for a reason; the invaders need to pre-stage.
Taiwan is not logistically vulnerable?
Anyone dumb enough to think they could even make it here has already lost.
In all reality it would be completely stupid to try civilians here literally have More guns than the military does plus a lot of civilians are trained because they themselves are former military
WOLVERINES!!!
It’s not that Russia can’t defeat Ukraine.
American weapons and vehicles are why they are getting so bad.
Ukraine would’ve lost quickly without American aid.
